Frequently Asked Questions

Effect Rules

• When an effect moves Invaders "on each board," is the chosen board the origin or the destination for those pieces?
  Whichever it would be if you targeted a land on that board with that effect. So, for example, Gather pieces into a land on that board (from that board or a different board) or Push pieces from a land on that board (to that board or a different board). [Jagged Earth, p. 12]

General Play

• When instructed to count multiple piece types separated by slashes (e.g., "the fewest Towns/Cities"), do players choose which piece type to count?
  No. Count all pieces that are at least one of the types on the list. So in the example, if there are 2 Towns and 1 City in the land, the total for that land is 3 Towns/Cities. In the unlikely case that a piece is on the list multiple ways, it only gets counted once.

• If an Event or Fear Card has multiple instructions, only *some* of which are "each", how many actions is that? Eg: Dahan Threaten has each player add a Strife, then applies a rule where Strife lowers Invader Health.
  Then the whole Fear Card / Event is one action, with one nested action per "each". (So for Dahan Threaten, each player adding Strife is a nested action within the initial Fear Action.)

  The entire "how many actions is it?" determination is:

  • If it just does 1 thing, it's 1 action.
  • If it has only "each" instructions, it's 1 action per "each".
  • Otherwise, it's 1 action, and "each" instructions cause 1 nested action per "each".

  Up-front conditionals (like on Foreign Dignitaries Visit, Harvest Bounty Harvest Dust, and the "choose one" in Choice Events) aren't part of the action - you check the conditional, figure out which one to do, then proceed as above.

Power Cards

• If an Adversary/Event/Scenario Action causes an Invader Action, does "Pour Time Sideways" double both the the original Action and then twice double the Invader Action?
  No, "Pour Time Sideways" doesn't double anything that's already doubled.

  For example, if time is poured onto a board twice, then "On each board: Choose a land with Cities. Build there." (the "Provincial Seat" Event) makes players choose a land on that board three times, but only Builds once in each chosen land for a total for three Build Actions on that board (rather than causing nine Build Actions by choosing three times and Building three times per choice).

  Formally, when "Pour Time Sideways" changes how many times an action happens, it doesn’t apply to any secondary (triggered/nested) actions caused, directly or indirectly by that action (i.e., any descendant in the action tree).
